The aptly named [LightingOnDemand] has created a Lorentz cannon that can fire a lightning bolt. Honestly, as you can see in the video below, it looks like something from a bad 1950s science ...

direction with no spatial rotation (i.e., a Lorentz boost in the x direction). The Lorentz transformations are calculated here as linear transformations of four-vectors [ct, x, y, z] described by ...
